If osteoarthritis is the same in dogs as in humans, you may want to get the dog checked out with an orthopedic surgeon, and have x-rays done first because this product does not do a thing for the spurring that occurs and is so very painful. I knew I had osteoarthritis many years ago so I got myself started on glucosamine chondroitin because I knew there was no cure for this disease but wanted to see if it would help re-build the cartilage in my knees. It didn't, and the pain just got steadily worse so went in for x-ray and found the right knee is bone on bone with spurring. The doctor said glucosamine chondroitin or any other product on the market cannot re-build cartilage. I am now scheduled for knee replacement surgery.
Please, go see an orthopedic surgeon first for humans and one for pets. It may save you years of grief and money unwisely spent. |
